The History of Assurant Health

The company now known as Assurant Health began in La Crosse, Wisconsin, in 1892 as the La Crosse Mutual Aid Association. In 1900, the Company relocated its headquarters to Milwaukee and changed its name to the Time Indemnity Company, then simply Time Insurance Company.
For most of the 20th century, the company was known as Time Insurance. Then, in 1978, Time Insurance Company became part of the international financial services provider known as Fortis.
 
Wide Array of Products for Small Business
  The organization continued to grow throughout the 1980s and 1990s and then in 1998, our company changed its name to Fortis Insurance Company.
Through acquisitions (most notably John Alden in 1998), unique product offerings, and expanded distribution channels (including the first and exclusive sales distribution partnership with State Farm Insurance), Assurant Health has become a leading developer and provider of individual medical, small group, short term, and student health insurance products.
Over the decades, Assurant Health has built a solid reputation for high-quality products, stability, and financial strength.
